regarding God Song GOD Tune: Blowing in the Wind It is God that is always driving man to care about the coming day. And yet God is the mystery who takes each man's security away. It is God that makes man seek happiness. but does not allow his joy to stay. It is God who gives every man his life, and God who takes his life away. It is God that drives man to search for love, and yet man is constantly pursued. By that force which finally casts each one out into loneliness and solitude. It is God that drives man to knowledge and truth, but always denies him certitude. It is God who drives every man his life, and God who takes his life away. It is God that gives the desire to achieve, and yet death leaves man's work undone. It is God that summons man to do good, and neglect his duty to none. And yet God is the voice that pronounces guilt, for man's war with self is never won. It is God who gives every man his life, and God who takes his life away.

Peter, Tony & Georgianna....you are my 3 strange angels & will forever be part of my life:****
DH Lawrence's poem kept going over & over in my brooding over the greatness of the these 3 that were part of my life in so many ways & will forever be part of my history as well....****
****
Not I, not I, but the wind that blows through me!****
A fine wind is blowing the new direction of Time.****
If only I let it bear me, carry me, if only it carry me!****
If only I am sensitive, subtle, oh, delicate, a winged gift!****
If only, most lovely of all, I yield myself and am borrowed****
By the fine, fine, wind that takes its course through the chaos of the world****
Like a fine, an exquisite chisel, a wedge-blade inserted;****
If only I am keen and hard like the sheer tip of a wedge****
Driven by invisible blows,****
The rock will split, we shall come at the wonder, we shall find the Hesperides.****
****
Oh, for the wonder that bubbles into my soul,****
I would be a good fountain, a good well-head,****
Would blur no whisper, spoil no expression.****
****
What is the knocking?****
What is the knocking at the door in the night?****
It is somebody wants to do us harm.****
****
No, no, it is the three strange angels.****
Admit them, admit them.****
....dh Lawrence ****
